A lot of the connection and communication among fans that once took place through correspondence, apas and fanzines now occurs through social media and — since about 2010 — particularly on Facebook. Most actifans have Facebook accounts and post at least occasionally, and a great many established clubs and conventions maintain pages or groups on the platform, as do some zines, such as SF Commentary.
In addition, independent Facebook groups see much fan traffic. The groups most concerned with fandom include:
- Concellation
- FAANEDS
- FAN-EDS
- Fanhistory
- Journey Platypi of Fandom
- SF FANDOM
- Society for the Perpetuation of Fannish Fandom
- Tom Smith's Fandom Safe Zone
